    Long Range Archery

    What is your overall arrow weight? Any idea on the speed? I'm not familiar with your sight, how do you dope long distance? What's up with your other guys? We'll bellyache & moan later, right now we are (hopefully) trying to learn something.

    new truck help

    I've got an 03 F350 LBCC 6.0 PSD. Yeah, I had the oil cooler issue. Got it cured. $$$$. Other than that, it has been a very good truck. It's lifted 8" and is my daily driver. I've twisted this long azz truck through a lot of rough roads that it should not have been on. Got no issue with the truck, it's solid. Providing you can verify a 6.0 has had all the fixes, one can get a good deal as the 6.0 reputation was earned and resale reflects it.

    Finally got some time to read this thread to the end. Got a day off work and will start a new thread in the campfire later today. I invite all of you to join in and comment.

    Don't have to respond the those who think the 100 yd club is OK for archers at this time, but I will. I do want to apologize to a new member who is posting some cool stuff on this site. I'll make another thread and debate another time. Gotta go.

    Sorry boys, I can't let this crap slide. You can justify it any way you want. Long range and bowhunting don't mix. I will comment. You can put me on YOUR ignore list. Nice buck BTW.

    This new mentality of lobbing long range range shots is mystifying. Personally, I find it disgusting. Flame on boys, I'm starting my ignore list.
  9. This thread has great entertainment value however it's run it course and ought to go away.

    350 class

    Actually none of these Bulls is a 350. This was not meant to be a trick question, but rather reinforce the idea that a 350 bull is a BIG bull. 1) scores 338. This is boosted by the 17+ inch 'extra' point on the base of his left antler. Without that point, he is a 320 bull. 2) scores 325 3) scores 326 All scores are gross, and would drop quickly when looking at net scores. Several people were on top of this, but we sure could have passed any of these off as a 350 to many people. Regardless of score, each comes with great memories of a hunt with friends and family; that can never be measured with a tape. Also, each has fed the family. If I see any of these bulls breaking clear and turning broadside this September, in unit 1, there will be a broad head in the air! Thanks to those who made guesses, hopefully it was a fun way to kill some time while we wait for the season. But it was a trick. You set a "frame of reference". Looking at a photo is much different than observing a living bull. Being that you have a unit 1 tag I'd tell you to hold out for better than 330. Especially if you got some time.

    350 class

    Pine Donkey, I appreciate that you posted a test. I'll take a shot. Bull #1 - Appears to be a 6 X 7, is the highest grossing bull in the group. I'd guess 354" gross. Bull #2 - Nice bull, 342 gross Bull #3- Another very nice bull, 332.

    Any of my buddies ever shoot a white turkey, I'll guarantee they'll NEVER live it down. Should I shoot a white one, I'd expect the same.

    New way to score antlers

    I think scoring systems are best left as they are. No, I'm not a fan of air measurements but do agree spread looks good. I'm with Bill on trophy quality. "Trophy" ought to be directly related to the effort required to acquire said trophy.

    Saw one on the Diamond Rock road 30 years ago. It was a white hen but not an albino (not as white as this one). Thx for posting.

    rocky mtn sheep and bonus points ?

    Make sure you apply for hunt #'s that have NR tags available. You might want to check on RMBS in North Dakota, I think there are some.

    rocky mtn sheep and bonus points ?

    #1 Yes, #2, 4 tags available, likely to max point holders in the 20% pass

    rocky mtn sheep and bonus points ?

    Assuming you are going into the 2015 fall draw with 24 points. There are 28 rocky mtn sheep applicants left at the 26 point level. 65 at the 25 point level and you are part of a group of 52. These numbers are approximate. Bonus point report does not account for people not actively applying for hunts. These projections are based solely on last years active applications for RMBS. One could assume that most of these applicants have taken a desert ram. Ten of 17 RMBS tags went to max point holders in 2014. I'd say you'll be waiting 10-15 years to get in the max point pool. Your best bet is to put in for hunt #'s that make it out of the max point draw with permits available for the 1-2 pass. This is true for most of us
